You can place a mark on most players in your same level range from their Mafia profile as long as you’ve got the stamina and the money to pay out for a bounty.

Properties

Real estate is a great way to earn quick, steady and reliable cash and street credit. Owning properties is where the real cash is at! Properties generate recurring income that can be used to finance your criminal activates. The more properties you own, the more money will continue to roll in.

The Bank

To Shelton47 - the game is rigged that's why. I have my account which I play Mafia Wars in - VERY hard to get godfather points. My daughter plays oh her account (we are at the same level) She gets them every time she completes a tier and levels up - sometimes 4 or five a day. I only manage that amount in a week!
